The circuit was developed to produce a continuity tester with a low resistance mainly for checking the connections between soldered joints. Operational Amplifier (Op-Amp) – a DC coupled high gain ...

Proper safety procedures are critical when testing high-voltage systems. As the following examples prove, mistakes happen. However, when the safety of you and your coworkers is at stake, neglecting ...

For testing PCBs, test engineers have a variety of options ranging from venerable in-circuit testers and flying probers to functional testers and the latest in embedded-instrument technology.

In-circuit testers rely on bed-of-nails-type fixtures that give the tester access to every node (or net) of the printed circuit board (PCB). Using this access, the tester takes a divide-and-conquer ...

So you have power circuit breakers at your facility, and they seem to be just fine, sitting there quietly doing their job. What you may not realize is that even though your circuit breakers are ...

This circuit can be used to test up to three LEDs at once, connected in series. You can easily increase that number by using a higher supply voltage. If you do so, you should allow 2.7 V for each ...

When a circuit is pushed past its limits, it rarely fails politely. It signals trouble through tripped breakers, hot outlets, ...
